Knitting Fool
I fully intended to drop the Colinette for a while and be serious here, but I really love that slightly shiny thing I finished over the weekend, and, as I mentioned, I just can't wear it till spring. So:
Same yarn, different color; same pattern, different stitch. If I get this done quickly -- and at this large gauge I ought to -- I'll be wearing it soon.
And THEN back to the high gauge, higher quality knitting.
The first card of Amber and Megan's knitting tarot has been designed. Excellent. Only 77 cards to go -- this is going to take a while, apparently.
I'm just guessing here, but I THINK that nagging won't hurry it along. I'm going to rely on occasional interested queries.
One advantage to watching the process unfold, however, is that those of us who have our orders in for the finished deck can consider each image in advance, before the deck arrives, so we'll already know it when it arrives in the mail.
Card #0. The Knitting Fool. Starting out; you never know where, exactly, things will end up. Whether this is casting on for a swatch or an item can only be made clear by the cards around it.
Which don't exist yet.
And it's only one stitch, isn't it? Could be the beginning of a Shetland shawl or a length of I-cord.
I'm interested in the necessary spikiness of the deck, too -- I've been thinking about this. Like a giant deck o' swords, all those knitting needles everywhere. So I'm looking forward to seeing how Amber solves this problem.
(Amber! Don't tell me! I want to watch the deck work its way on out.)
